It would seem that Motor trend agree's with us that the new Dodge is a great new addition to the fleet! And the CTD is a world beater!<br><br>KC

Stopped in Williamsburg Saturday to look at the 3500 dually 4x4. Man came out and instantly fell in love with mine. The sticker on the 03 was at $42k and that doesn't include all charges and dealer stuff. I'd have to live in that. He said do you want to drive it and I said NOPE!!!!!

Re:Truck of the Year

Wow that sounds a bit too much. The Dealer in my area sell their trucks well below the MSRP Price. Example 03 2500 Qd 4x4 6 speed yada yada yada, Sticker $37k sell for $33k. I also saw a 3500 sticker for $42k selling for $37k. It’s not just a couple of trucks it all of them on their lot.

Re:Truck of the Year

I'd say this was the best I've done shopping for a vehicle. MSRP was $50,310 and I paid $45,500. Canadian by the way.

Re:Truck of the Year

My '01 stickered for a shade over $53K CDN-out the door for $46009.00 (where the $9 came from, I have no idea! ). Best vehicle I've ever owned-although I admit I have looked at and drove the new 2003s just for comparison. I won't be switching for a while-nothing against the new ones but I'm quite comfortable with my old one &amp; have a ton of $$$ sunk into it that would be lost in the switch. Plus I dunno if the extra goodies on the '03s are enough yet to justify a change on my part-a true Crew Cab would go a long ways towards convincing me to switch over. Are you listening there Dieter???? <br><br>Jason<br>
